Encountering a Robbery
That made sense. How could a nobody like me ever catch the Patriarch's or Young Master's eye?
Even this chief steward standing before me had probably forgotten all about me long ago!
Otherwise, how could you have allowed me to get so close to that trash Ling Zhong over the past year?
After leaving the town, Taishi Ming and Dai Zhirou continued toward the Star Luo Empire.
When they reached a small forest,
they saw two groups of people—one desperately chasing from the front, the other desperately fleeing behind.
"What's going on?"
Taishi Ming was somewhat dumbfounded!
Dai Zhirou thought for a moment. "They might have run into robbers!"
"Robbers?"
Taishi Ming was even more confused. This was the first time he had heard that word since coming to this world.
But thinking about it, it made sense. Wherever there were people, there would never be a shortage of such people.
As they spoke, the two groups drew much closer.
Taishi Ming could finally make out what they looked like.
The group in front consisted of three women.
The first wore a tight, backless white dress. Her cool and striking makeup paired with seductive eyes gave her a uniquely mature charm. Her delicate bare back was exposed, flaunting her perfect figure.
The second had skin fairer than snow and eyes like a clear pool of water. Every glance she cast carried an elegant and lofty air that captivated others, making them feel inferior and afraid to profane her.
The third was a young, adorable little loli, around eleven or twelve years old. She had delicate features, fair skin, long silky black hair, and beautiful eyes filled with tranquil serenity. Like a doll, she was so beautiful she hardly seemed real.
A beautiful young matron!
An elegant young lady to be admired from afar but never desecrated!
An adorable little loli!
Damn, forget everyone else—even Taishi Ming wanted to rob them, okay?
Behind the three women was a group of twenty or thirty men.
"Help!"
"Save us!"
"Wuwuwu!"
As though they had finally spotted their saviors in Dai Zhirou and Taishi Ming, the three women immediately began crying for help.
After his initial surprise, Taishi Ming frowned. For some reason, he felt that something was off.
Dai Zhirou beside him also frowned. But unlike Taishi Ming, her furrowed brow now carried killing intent.
As a woman herself, how could she remain indifferent when she saw three frail women being pursued by a group of men?
The three women had already called for help. Even if they had stayed silent, she could not have stood by and watched.
She said to the three women, "Stand behind me!"
"Thank you, thank you!"
The three women thanked her profusely and obediently moved behind Dai Zhirou. The little loli among them looked as though she had been frightened badly, her face pale.
As though she had found someone to rely on, she instinctively reached for Dai Zhirou's leg.
Taishi Ming still felt that something was wrong. He stepped back and positioned himself between the three women and Dai Zhirou.
At the same time, he swept a sharp gaze over the three of them.
The little loli's body stiffened, and she withdrew her hand. Standing beside the other two women, she looked at Taishi Ming with a wronged expression.
Dai Zhirou was somewhat puzzled by Taishi Ming's actions, but she said nothing.
Saving them was simply an act of kindness. Compared with Taishi Ming, these three were merely strangers.
At this moment, the people chasing the three women arrived before Dai Zhirou and Taishi Ming.
The big man leading them chuckled as he looked at Dai Zhirou and Taishi Ming standing in front of the women.
"Tsk, tsk. Didn't expect another great beauty to show up! Not bad, not bad. Our luck is really good today. Now us brothers have one more outlet to vent our desires..."
Before he could finish speaking, Taishi Ming, standing behind Dai Zhirou, could no longer suppress the fury in his heart and attacked.
The Seven Sha Sword appeared in his hand, and he activated Soul Bone Skill: Sword Thrust.
The Seven Sha Sword shot out instantly, curved through the air, and flew toward the man at a bizarre angle.
"Soul Master!!!"
The three women could not help crying out.
Their cries immediately alerted the people on the opposite side.
They all became wary. Yet aside from some surprise, there was not a trace of shock or fear on their faces.
However, the Seven Sha Sword flew at incredible speed and reached the insolent man in the blink of an eye.
Swish!
Unexpectedly, a martial soul longsword also appeared in the man's hand. With a diagonal swing, he directly blocked Taishi Ming's attack!
Dai Zhirou's expression changed as well. Everyone possessed martial souls, but anyone capable of blocking a Soul Master's attack was definitely a Soul Master.
And Soul Masters and ordinary people were entirely different.
Besides, there were a full twenty or thirty people on the other side. How many of them were Soul Masters?
Concern rose in her heart, and she asked, "Who exactly are you people?"
The leading big man said, "Us? Naturally, we're robbers! Of course, whether we rob for money or for beauty depends on whether the person being robbed is a beauty or an ugly woman."
"Hahahaha!"
"You should just surrender obediently!"
"That's right! Wouldn't it be nice to follow our boss back and become his bandit chief's wife?"
"Our boss is a famous figure around these parts—Mad Sword You Feng!"
"Heh."
At that moment, Taishi Ming sneered behind her. "Second Sister, kill them all! No need to hold back. Any capable Soul Master wouldn't play at being a robber in this godforsaken place. These are just worthless trash who can't make it onto the stage."
Dai Zhirou smiled at his words. "That makes sense!"
As soon as she spoke, she instantly released her martial soul and transformed into a half-human, half-spider form.
Without even using a soul skill, she charged forward. As she moved, her eight blade-like spider legs continuously slashed toward the crowd.
Mad Sword You Feng waved his hand. "Brothers, get them!"
As he spoke, three soul rings—one white, one yellow, and one purple—rose from his body.
Among the twenty or thirty people behind him, seven or eight also released their martial souls and soul rings.
However, they were all only one-ring and two-ring Soul Masters.
They still looked brimming with confidence. In their eyes, Dai Zhirou appeared to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. No matter how talented she was, she could only have two or three rings.
Their leader, Mad Sword You Feng, had three rings, and they also held an overwhelming advantage in numbers.
It would be hard not to win.
But when Dai Zhirou's spider legs swept toward them, they finally understood how foolish they had been.
Their soul skills were actually so utterly vulnerable before those spider legs.
One after another, they fell beneath the spider legs.
Before absolute strength, unless something was particularly special, everything lost its proper power. Just like Tang Hao fighting Zhao Wuji in the original story! He did not need any soul skills to beat you until you wished you were dead.
"Hiss!"
The three women behind Taishi Ming each sucked in a cold breath.
They had never expected that this delicate Beautiful Girl, who looked just like them, would be so vicious.
